Australian Open 2016 day 5: Nishikori, Tsonga and Radwanska

Kei Nishikori defeats Guillermo Garcia-Lopez 7-5 2-6 6-3 6-4

Kei Nishikori survived a right wrist injury scare to defeat 26th-seed Guillermo Garcia-Lopez in four sets.

Listen to Kei Nishikori’s press conference:

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga defeats Pierre-Hugues Herbert 6-4 7-6 7-6

Tsonga won in straight sets but had to work hard to get past Herbert. Jo only lost once against a fellow French player in a Grand Slam tournament, it was against Richard Gasquet at Wimbledon… in 2007.

He next faces Kei Nishikori for a place in the quarterfinals. The Japanese leads their head to head 4-2, but lost their last meeting, a 5-set thriller at last year’s French Open. Tsonga’s power vs Nishikori’s quickness, an exciting opposite of styles!

Agnieszka Radwanska defeats Monica Puig 6-4 6-0

Fourth seed Agnieszka Radwanska made a quick work of Monica Puig, who was probably tired by her comeback win over Kristyna Pliskova in the previous round. Radwanska has been on a roll so far, do you think she will finally win her elusive first Grand Slam title here?
